Chemical Structure

4-(Bromomethyl)-1-methyl-1H-indole CAS 1371535-79-3 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 4-(Bromomethyl)-1-methyl-1H-indole (C10H10BrN) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

4-(Bromomethyl)-1-methyl-1H-indole (CAS 1371535-79-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H10BrN and a molecular weight of 224.10 g/mol.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(Bromomethyl)-1-methyl-1H-indole meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
